My new years resolution was to be debt free by the end of the year. A lot of budgeting and planning went into play, but im glad to say I am so close to my goal and it feels liberating! I got so tired of paying for $15 larger-than-life sandwich/salad near my office. I started making my lunches and I saved a boat load of cash and a added plus was me loosing weight with out even trying. Get in the habit of making an affordable and healthy alternative at home, and your wallet and your figure will thank you.
